Pauline Ferrand Prevot is now betting on Marathon and Gravel

Pauline Ferrand Prevot wants to take advantage of her magnificent form to excel at the upcoming Marathon World Championships. And why not: even in gravel.

After winning the Short Track World Championships e MTB, but let's not forget the stellar performance in Val di Sole, wants to take advantage of this moment to stock up on titles. And how to blame him.

Recall that Pauline has a world title in almost every off-road discipline… and more! She won a world road title in 2014.

To find this state of form, Prevot gave up the stages of the World Cup in America (thus losing the opportunity to excel in the general classification) to train 3 weeks on the high ground (Font-Romeu, in the French Pyrenees, near the border with Spain). During the season he trained a lot there technique also with Cecile Ravanel: in short, despite her age, Pauline has totally put herself back in the game by working on her technical and physical shortcomings.

STILL 2 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS IN FRONT OF YOU

In two weeks he will compete at the Marathon World Championships in Denmark. And his will is to compete also in Gravel World Championship which will be held in Italy on 8 and 9 October.

Pauline Ferrand-Prevot has conquered many records, just think of the 2014 vintage where she managed to win, in the same year, the XC, road and cyclocross world championships. She could become the only athlete in history to win every off-road discipline if she scored victory in the marathon and gravel.

Perhaps this is what pushes Prevot to give his best: it would be a hardly equal record! Come on Pauline.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
